Morning all, I hope you’re all doing okay. A wintery scene in Leeds City station in the late 1980s today, happy days of bashing these machines. This 45/1 is about to depart for Liverpool Lime Street from the old platform 12.

The old and new order square up at Manchester Victoria. BRELs class 150/2 Sprinter stands next to 45007. The Peak survived until its withdrawal in 1988, meeting its end at M.C. Metals in Glasgow in 1992.

A locomotive class synonymous with various lines over the years, one which was the Trans Pennine route. That distinctive Sulzer sound filling the air, as 45103 sits idling to itself in Leeds in the 80s. I really miss sights and sounds like this!

Leeds City Station in the 80s, and we are treated to what was a very familiar scene, and soundtrack. The Sulzer throb fills the air as both 47 and 45 tick over awaiting departure.

A view no longer available. We've removed the tunnel and scenery to open up the end of the layout for further scenic development. Plans include a station and the installation of signals.
